Thank you kind sir! it is what it is, we get the Striker we have got time and time again and two more good players this squad are play off contenders easily
Thing is we haven't even given Cabango and Darling new deals so you can see why people are not as positive as they might be haha
This club man, so near but so so far! | | |  |

No argument there, they're a great defensive pair and their contracts need sorting asap. | | | |

13,500 there today for a team who have won all their home matches and are in a play off position. Our attendance figures when taken in that context are not so bad. Possibly the opportunity to continually watch you team on TV is changing the way supporters look at football. It's not down to the lack of attractive football, it's just the way it is. | | | |

Blackburns owners have peed off tens of thousands
There are options nearby to watch high grade football.
Not the case with us
Bugger all else in Bakckburn
We are one of the lowest supported crowds in the league and in no way the smallest city
Derby is the same size as Swansea but has twice the fan base . Itās worth a ponder .
Burnley is more than half the size of Swansea .
We need excitement and we havenāt got it | |

I would say Derby are on par with the Swans. As for fanbase I very much doubt it.

What I found absolutely hilarious today was seeing coleman sing along to a blackburn song at half time, he truly is thick as fvck. | | | |

We have a budding partnership in Canango & Darling, that could be one of the best pairings in the Championship, and what have the Owners offered them ?
Jack all !
It just goes to show how good professionals the 2 of them are, when they both still give 100% every game.
Then thereās the lack of goals, plus the lack of shots at goal to consider.
When you think Piroe scored back to back 20 goal seasons, what have we done to replace that loss of goals?
Enter banjo Yates, and Kukharevich, (who couldnāt get a game off the bench), both farmed out on loans after paying Ā£2m for each of them.
Next was Vipotnik, as of yet, not troubling the scorers.
Plan B, stick Liam Cullen up front ! š³
There is one binding element amongst all thisā¦ Luke Williams.
Iām starting to think old Albert was correct in his judgement of insanityā¦
āDoing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.ā | | | |

Cabango is. Superb young pro and one whom we should have nailed down long ago.
I see him as a captain . Nobody can tell me he would do a worse job than our current chap.
We are not being led correctly on the field of play
Managers tactics not questioned
Goalkeeper is someone we can build a team around . We have one
It wouldnāt take much to get us restarted but ,right now,we are going south . | |

Williams has tried a couple of different tactics pushing the full backs up high resulting in no space for the wingers and requiring the midfield to drop deep, that left us short in the middle, then he has tried asking Key and Tymon to at times come in field given the space in the midfield but that means the wingers then have to come deep,
Leave the defence alone Darling and Cabango are relatively solid, Key and Tymon are fullbacks who with a little more attention to their defensive positioning are and will be
better assets both in defence and attack.
The main issue is that that midfield domince, we don't have any, we cede ground to play across the back line which invariably ends up with Grimes dropping deep four players out on the wings leaving a striker up front and Franco and Cooper to battle it out in the middle while Cooper tries pushing high to support the press, the midfield is wide open. Even the best centreforwards would struggle with the scraps being delivered. [Post edited 20 Oct 10:34]

Iām not sure I do. I think we are too slow in our build up which even a recognised goal scorer up front would struggle. | |

The Grimes Tymon pas a deux is a most telling feature of why we are so slow
Tysonās first instinct is to return the ball 45 degrees to grimes . Who then passes it to others to return the oasis to him. Result is we go nowhere | |

You mean Grimes is too deep? | | | |
| Blackburn Rovers v Swansea City : Match day thread GAME DAY on 11:06 - Oct 20 with 802 views | union_jack |
Exactly, we go nowhere fast.
However, the opposition have all set themselves up up nicely to defend. WE ARE TOO SLOW.
People wonāt like this but the first Cardiff goal yesterday is one we seldom score. They got up the pitch quickly and Robertson(?) shot from outside the area before the defence could get into position. One, we rarely take a shot and 2, when we do the area is saturated.
I know, it was against Plymouth and they have an awful defence. OK, letās see how we do against them. I reckon weāll struggle even if they went down to 10. | |

I refer you to the Wolves goal against Man City just now.
The movement especially but excellent control of the ball to score. [Post edited 20 Oct 14:10]

We are slow, no doubt at all, but weāre quicker than we were under Martin.
Piroe managed 20 or close to it both seasons | | | |

It doesnāt matter if we p,any against 11 ,10 ,9 or seven.
We will play the same
The Wycombe game was really the template that we stick to.
Loads of mealy mouthed apologetic crap from Williams after it but heās done nothing to improve that .
Fact
Players are regression. Ie Ronald. The reason he looked good for he first games is that Lukey hadnāt had enough time to ruin him,and he is.
Itās all about owners realising they have xxxxed up with appointing him ,and whom they will replace .
His leaving and any subsequent freeing players of their shackles will see fans return to the stadium. They will no longer watch this dross . | |
